    No, but she does flirt with a guy who suggests sucking up a hot bath.

    Whatever that means.

    Moonlighting? Is that allowed?

    I've not watched it yet but have this hilarious image of him turning to Ellie and saying:

    "Fancy sucking up a hot bath.... ....if you know what I mean?"

    Then Ellie backs away slowly and runs.

    The old thread had a much better title.

    That was a great moment! It just seemed so natural and un-rehearsed!

    Thanks, I knew that student looked like someone. I just couldn't place it.

    Jesus. The teacher damned that student with faint praise.

    I assume this is Ellie's first attempt at this kind of serious stuff.

    Reminded me of a big combine harvester. Needed more lasers and radar dishes.

    How does one go from writing reviews of poor video games to presenting BBC shorts?

    Its an interesting career progression that I find perplexing.

    The next logical stage is pro-wrestler on that ladder.

    I've turned off all the avatars and crap, so don't expect me to be impressed by yours.

    She's been the bbc's videogames go-to lady for a while. I'm guessing they want someone who knows what they're talking about as their face for these sort of articles.

    Heh. I love the way he talks at the box rather than to Ellie when he answers her questions. She must have been over the moon with this gig.

    "Ellie, we've got a guy for you to interview who has water-cooled his PC to play Mirror's Edge with a better frame-rate."
